Review on πŸ“· Pioneer Photo DA-57CBF/SG: 24-Pocket Frame Cover Album for 5x7 Prints in Sage Green Fabric by Carla Anderson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good album - that's what I wish for

Now I have two of these (Blue, 5 x 7"). Good quality. Well made. I like the cloth bag. Would make a good gift, I like 5 x 7 prints. Sleeves are wide. Maybe too wide. Fits for 5 x 7- 1 print. 2", which means that at 5x7, half an inch of black is visible above the print. Not bad, but I'd like a denser look - more like a wedding album or printed book. Another issue is the odd size of the window on the cover - I had to print photos to order because the hole and its cover are not symmetrical. This means that if you think you're using an existing photo, you'll have to crop it or lose part of the photo. For example, you can put a 4 inch wide print in a sleeve, but only about 2-5/8 inches of the width will show. The hole covers 5/8" of the image on the left, right, and bottom. (Sleeve fits a 4" wide x 5" to 5-1/2" tall imprint; you may need to cut some length. 4x6 .) I will attach rough photo examples. (Too much information? Maybe I'm sorry.) Yes, I would buy one of these albums again - they were the best I could find at a reasonable price for fewer prints (12-24 sleeves available).

Pros
  • Photo Safe: Free from acid, lignin and PVC
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
